It was about three hundred steps away from him. Master Shen secretly estimated that he observed it for a while. After returning to the boulder, he whispered: "That fire should be the thief's sentinel!"
"Wanting a bonfire at night?" Gu Cihang sneered: "If they were my men, I would have to peel off their skins!"
"They're just a bunch of thieves, they don't understand the laws of the army!" Master Shen looked at the sky: "It's a little early now. In half an hour, I'll go up and touch the night sentry first, and then we can all fight in together and win. First achievement!"
"That's not a night whistle, it's just a bait!" A stiff voice came from behind the two of them. Shen Faseng and Gu Cihang turned around, but they had black teeth. Shen Faseng's face looked a little ugly: "How do you know that is Bait? Are you telling nonsense to deceive me?"
"This is the rule of the Baekje army's night sentries. There are both open and hidden sentries to guard against enemy night attacks!" Heiji Changzhi climbed to the edge of the stone, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the fire: "Look, it's on the left side of the fire. There is a big tree more than ten steps away, and the secret whistle is most likely hidden in the tree."
"Big tree?" Master Shen tried his best to open his eyes wide, but all he could see was darkness, and he couldn't tell the difference between big trees and small trees.
"Can you clearly see that it is a big tree?" Master Shen was surprised and confused: "Why can't I see anything clearly?"
"Colonel Shen doesn't know something. I am different from ordinary people. I have developed a pair of night eyes since I was a child. I can see clearly even in the middle of the night. During the war against Silla, I led troops to attack enemy camps at night many times. !”
Hearing Hei Te Chang's tone, Master Shen didn't think it was a lie. He thought for a while and said, "In that case, let you deal with this secret whistle. After clearing the secret whistle, learn three shrike calls!"
"Yes!" Hei Te Changzhi responded and quickly disappeared into the night. Gu Cihang complained in a low voice: "Feng Monk, why did you let this guy go so easily? If this black guy runs away, how can you find him back?"
"You kid, don't make blind guesses. Are his family members still in Sixian City? He can run away. What will happen to his family members? Besides, he also saw the Thunderbolt Car during the day and was so scared that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. This Why are you going to join the Baekje people at that time? Are there any such stupid people in the world who insist on jumping off a cliff instead of just living a good life?"
"That's true!" Gu Cihang nodded: "He is obviously a Baekje thief, but he shows off his arrogance when he surrenders to him. I'm still a little unconvinced."
"That's your fault!" Master Shen smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what Saburo said? If we want to make a difference in Baekje, we have to be gentle with the locals and recruit them to surrender. If they are unyielding, Fighting to the last man, how can we still survive? If nothing else, how many of the barriers and trenches in our camp were dug by Baekje civilians? And the wheat in the warehouse, if we had to do it ourselves, we would be exhausted first. , after all, our fame and wealth really fall on these descendants!"
"That's true!" Gu Cihang said with a smile: "Hearing what you say makes me feel better!"
While he was talking, several sharp bird calls suddenly came from the distance. Master Shen lowered his right hand and said, "Silence! Listen!"
At this time, there was a bird song, which was particularly clear in the night sky. Gu Cihang couldn't help but be excited: "Yes, that guy succeeded! Let's go up?"
"Don't be anxious! Just wait!" Master Shen stopped his impatient companion and waited for the next bird song before he nodded: "You go in front, I'll hold back!"
"Yeah!" Gu Cihang nodded. This is the most commonly used formation during night attacks: the deputy general is at the front, the main general is last, and the soldiers are in the middle. This can effectively avoid getting separated at night. The night is fair, so she covers it The eyes of the guardian also cover the eyes of the night attacker.
The night sentry lit the bonfire in a shallow depression on the top of the hill. There was a big locust tree behind it, and a huge rock behind it to block the strong wind. There were two corpses under the tree. One had his throat cut, and the other had his head looking at his back. Shen Faseng and Gu Cihang looked at each other, and they saw vigilance in their friends' eyes.
"Brother Black Tooth!" Shen Faseng tried his best to keep his tone as gentle as possible. The man in front of him is a dangerous beast. No matter whether he is friend or foe, everyone should respect him: "What's the situation ahead?"
"There are two ways to go forward!" Black Teeth Changzhi pointed with his right hand: "To the left is the Baekje camp, and to the right is the Japanese camp. I suggest choosing the Japanese!"
"Oh why?"
"We can disguise ourselves as Baekje people. It's hard to distinguish Japanese people in the dark!"
"Good idea!" Gu Cihang immediately understood what Hei Te Changzhi meant. The Japanese were not fools or blind people. Of course they would know that someone in the Baekje Restoration Army had an affair with the Tang people. If they were attacked by the Baekje people at night, they could at least destroy it. trust between the two.
"Then how can we pretend to be from Baekje?" Shen Faseng asked.
"In order to avoid making noise, we are all wearing leather armor. All you need to do is greet us in Baekje later!" Black Teeth Changzhi replied.
"This is a good idea!" Gu Cihang said with a smile: "Everyone has been in Baekje for so long, so you should be able to understand a few simple sentences!"
"Okay, just follow Brother Black Tooth's method!" Shen Faseng turned around and whispered to the sergeant behind him: "Everyone, first wrap the white cloth around your right arm as a mark to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. Also, later, Do you understand that only Baekje dialect is allowed in the enemy camp, and Chinese is not allowed?"
"Understood!" Everyone responded in a low voice.
"Okay, let's all work together to kill the thief. When you hear three whistles, retreat!" At this point, Master Shen pulled out his horizontal sword. The blade had already been blackened to prevent the reflection from attracting the enemy's attention: "Follow me!"
Black Teeth Changzhi was at the front, followed closely by Shen Faseng. Now Shen Faseng believed his claim that he had a pair of night eyes. In the night without lights, Hei Te Changzhi walked on the ground with quick steps. The only thing Shen Faseng could do was to follow closely behind him, staring at the phosphorescence on his arm (in order to ensure that he could see it at night, Wang Wenzuo ordered some powdered dead bones to be smeared on the cloth wrapped around his right arm so that he could ensure that he would not escape.
The Japanese camp is right in front of us. Perhaps because we arrived on the first day, there are no trenches or earthen ramparts outside the camp, only a row of hastily erected fences. Behind the fence are tents in twos and threes, but more people are sleeping beside the campfire in the open air. It is summer now, and the open air may be more comfortable than in the tent. Black Teeth Changzhi was the first to climb over the fence, followed closely by Shen Faseng. He first killed the nearest few people in their sleep, then pulled out the burning wood from the bonfire and threw it towards the nearest tent.
